In this episode of The Mycelium Network podcast, host Schalk Neethling sits down with Leo Cheng, a former editor in the film and TV industry who has been teaching himself to code and is ready to make programming his career. Schalk and Leo touch on various topics, such as learning through making, the importance of onboarding and mentoring new developers at a company and exploring different aspects of programming through good first issues.
They also touch on harder topics, such as the trend of roasting other people’s work on social media, imposter syndrome, and the challenges of learning and making in the open.
Note: While I said in the episode that syntactic sugar aims to make code more human-readable, this does not always happen in practice. Also, what is readable and understandable to one person, is not necessarily the case for someone else.
Continue the conversation on Discord.
